Natural Gas Analyzer A and the A Extended Version
Agilent 990 Micro GC User Manual 151
4 meter CP-Sil 5 CB
The 4 meter CP-Sil 5 CB channel of the Natural Gas Analyzer A Extended is specified for the
analysis of light hydrocarbons propane, n-butane, iso-butane, iso-pentane, and n-pentane.
Analysis of the NGA Gas Calibration standard results in the chromatogram shown in Figure 71.
Analysis of a sample containing neo-pentane results in a chromatogram similar to Figure 72.
Analysis of the Universal Gas Calibration standard results in the chromatogram shown in
Figure 73.
